TV on the Radio
The Brooklyn-based group TV on the Radio mixes post-punk, electronic, and other atmoshperic elements in such a creative way that it only makes sense that its core duo, vocalist Tunde Adebimpe and multi-instrumentalist/producer David Andrew Sitek, are both visual artists as well as musicians.

Pop, rock, and art songs about discordant living, misrepresentation, life, afterlife, love, and love "after hours." Scandalous. Undeniably catchy songs with incredible production, arrangements, champion crooning, and a host of extras.

WOW! We've slashed the price of the EP to celebrate TV ON THE RADIO's debut full-length, Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes.
